Archive for April, 2006

With us for three weeks this Dalmatian was an absolute delight, well behaved on her walks, loved playing with the toys in the play-ground and very affectionate, a joy to look after, and a really lovely Family pet.

“Bilbo” a Strikingly handsome long hair cat was booked into our cattery for a week over the Easter holidays.
He was an absolute joy to look after, a real chatterbox, and very affectionate. He loved stomping the toy green and white striped mouse into the ground, then tossing it high into the air.
We hope Emma and Graham book Bilbo and Sam in again soon.

Wallace and Harry putting there new soft toy through its paces, this little tug of war lasted a good ten minutes with Wallace pulling Harry all around the playpen and Harry (right) doggedly hanging on for grim death but still managed to pose for the camera.

Winter refuses to give up its icy grip as we go into April.
We had a heavy snow shower last night which lasted for over an hour giving the landscape a real wintry look.
And as we head for the Easter weekend let’s hope the weather picks up and it becomes a little milder, and dryer!

Now we are officially in British Summer and we’ve had a few days of good weather it was nice to get out and do some gardening.
It was the usual battle to get the mower started after the winter months but persistence paid of and the mower finally spluttered into life.
Although the garden is looking a wee bit baron after the winter months but there are some lovely flowers on show even if they are very small at the moment.
